Peer Tutoring
Peer tutoring can help you understand the subject, increase confidence and develop important learning strategies.
Our peer tutors are trained with internationally recognized best practices and standards in supporting students in their learning. Our peer tutoring program is certified through the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA). Our peer tutoring services are offered free of charge.
Types of Peer Tutoring
Appointment-Based Peer Tutoring (Online & On-Campus)
Appointment-based tutoring is a one-on-one scheduled session focused on your questions. Peer tutors can help you understand your class materials, prepare for exams, help with learning strategies, and answer your questions.
Drop-In Peer Tutoring (On-Campus)
Drop-in tutoring does not require an appointment and is in a casual setting that also allows for independent studying. Peer tutors are available to help you understand your class materials, prepare for exams, help with learning strategies, and answer your questions.
Tutor Led Exam Review Sessions
Experienced tutors lead exam review sessions throughout the semester for various on-campus classes.
Online Tutoring via Brainfuse
Students are given 5 hours of tutoring per academic year in Online Tutoring.
What to Expect from Your Tutor
